Recommended game resolution for PC?

PilzFTW · Nov 7, 2014

Hi everyone, or if you are reading

I would like to know what a good resolution for a PC is. I know it goes 720p, 1080p, 1440p, 4k and a bunch of others in the middle, but I need a good PC for WATCH_DOGS, BF4 and Arma III. Any good specs as well? :ange:

Budget: $2500

Thanks,
Pilz

Well, here`s an example for 4K, but without any more information from you, it`s difficult to give you a proper build.
You should know if you want 1080, 1440 or 4K.
Also, is this PC mainly for gaming, or other intensive tasks as well?

Are you buying from the US?

Hello! I would probably like to run in 1440p - 1080p but I don't know if it will cost too much.
I am buying from AUS.

Will that be too much?

It all depends on your budget and your needs.
If you are a FPS gamer, with this budget I would recommend a 1440p monitor which runs ar 120 or 144 Hz.

It`s up to you if you want extreme resolutions, or smooth gameplay.

You`re not giving me a lot to work with here
